Chapter 7: The Delicate Young Lady vs. the Gloomy Bastard (7)
Jiang family villa.
While Lu Cha was acting coquettishly, Jiang Xiaowan did not tell her mother what happened tonight.
Thinking of the girl's weak appearance in the billiard hall, Jiang Xiaowan heated a cup of milk after dinner and knocked on Lu Cha's door for the first time.
Squeak——
"elder sister?"
"I heard that drinking milk before bed helps you sleep, so I heated up a cup for you." Jiang Xiaowan seemed a little unfamiliar with Lu Cha because she rarely got close to him. "Um...are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Lu Cha shook her head and replied softly, "Thank you, sister. I'm much better now~"
"Look!" She bent her arms, wanting to show off her muscles, but the original owner was thin and her slender arms seemed to be easily broken.
Lu Cha put down his hand awkwardly and said, "You're still very strong..."
Jiang Xiaowan was amused by the girl's guilty look.
Realizing that something was wrong, she blushed and coughed. Suddenly, Jiang's mother's words rang in her ears: "Cha Cha likes Gu Mingchen very much."
"Actually..." Jiang Xiaowan stammered, hesitant.
If I explain that there is nothing between me and Gu Mingchen, will she misunderstand that I am showing off in disguise?
But if I don't tell you... this will become a problem sooner or later.
Just as Jiang Xiaowan was struggling with her words, she felt warm.
Lu Cha covered her with a blanket and said, "It's cold at night. You got soaked in the water during the day, and now you're only wearing your nightgown. You'll easily catch a cold."
While adjusting the blanket, Lu Cha quietly touched Jiang Xiaowan's exposed round shoulders, and his smile became more and more unrestrained.
Hehehe, so slippery!
Jiang Xiaowan clearly felt Lu Cha touching her, and she thought it was an accidental contact. But when she caught a glimpse of the strange and somewhat perverted smile on the other person's lips, Jiang Lu Cha's behavior in the ward instantly emerged in her mind.
It’s the same... emmm... disgusting?
A bold guess flashed through Jiang Xiaowan's mind.
No way...
This is ridiculous!
Noticing that Jiang Xiaowan's eyes looked at him with a subtle expression, Lu Cha stood with his hands crossed and acted very well-behaved, "Sister, what's wrong with you?"
"No, it's okay, I'll go back first, good night!"
Jiang Xiaowan fled in panic, leaving the girl confused.
Are you shy?

The next morning, Lu Cha heard the furious voice of Jiang's father downstairs:
"What does Gu Mingchen mean?! He just came back to China and he came to cancel the engagement! Doesn't anyone care about me bullying my precious daughter?!"
"He even said that if he insisted on the marriage, he would cancel the cooperation between the two families. Do you think I'd be afraid of him?!" Jiang's father's face flushed with anger. He said to Jiang's mother, "Call Mr. Gu right now. If they dare to cancel the engagement, I will expose everything they did!"
With Jiang's father's assurance, Jiang's mother, who had been holding back for a long time, immediately took out her phone and said, "I think we should just let them get the marriage certificate directly, so that Cha Cha won't have to worry every day."
"etc!"
Lu Cha ran downstairs in time and stopped the two elders' plan, "Dad, Mom, don't let me affect our family's business."
"And I don't like Gu Mingchen anymore, really!"
Is the heroine not attractive or the villain not lovable?!
But Jiang's father and mother had the same attitude. They didn't believe Lu Cha's explanation at all and thought she was just putting on an act. "Don't worry, daughter. Even if we don't cooperate with the Gu family, we won't lose much money. Dad will definitely help you achieve your wish and marry Gu Mingchen!"
"Cha Cha has grown up and knows that she should suppress her feelings for the sake of the family business." Mother Jiang, who loves to fantasize, looked at Lu Cha lovingly, and tears began to well up in her eyes.
Lu Cha suddenly felt overwhelmed.
Parents’ love is so heavy!
Sorry, villain! I'll use you as a shield!
"I didn't want to say it so early because I haven't caught up with him yet, but now there's no choice." Lu Cha clenched his fists, as if to cheer himself up, "Actually, I've fallen in love with someone else!"
Jiang’s father & Jiang’s mother:?
"The reason I want to break off the engagement with Gu Mingchen is because I like Nan Yan now."
Lu Cha lowered her head shyly and missed the shock on the two elders' faces.
Jiang's mother was the first to come to her senses: "Are you talking about...the illegitimate son of the Gu family who is so shameful and only knows how to fight every day?"
"Mom, he's just confused for a moment, he'll get better in the future!"
Jiang's mother fell into a brief silence, then stiffly changed the subject: "It's getting late, you and Xiaowan should go to school first. We can talk about this later."
She needs to slow down.
After the two children left, Jiang's mother revealed a worried look: "Cha Cha was fine, why would she be hanging out with that illegitimate child? Could she have been deceived and used by him?"
Father Jiang also had a tense expression on his face, and he was not in a good mood. "Observe for a while, and find a time to meet Nan Yan privately."
"Alas - this is the only way..." Jiang's mother couldn't understand.
When on earth did her juicy cabbages get eaten by pigs?!
-
Shangjing No. 1 Middle School.
After separating from Jiang Xiaowan, Lu Cha came to Class 3 and saw that there was an extra person sitting next to his seat.
The young man leaned his elbow on his chin and looked out the window.
The light golden sunlight hit his delicate profile, without the usual gloom, but with a bit of hazy tenderness, like an angel above the clouds, quietly appreciating everything in this world.
It was just the chatter of the people around that broke this beautiful picture:
"I really don't understand why the school hasn't expelled Nan Yan yet? It's a disgrace for a scum like him to stay in Class 3!"
"Shh—keep your voice down. Don't you know that Nan Yan has violent tendencies and is mentally ill? Be careful or he might hit you."
"Tsk, if he dares to touch me, I can make this beast regret coming into this world."
Bang!
A pile of garbage was suddenly dumped on the desk in front of the boy.
The smelly peel mixed with an unknown sticky liquid looked extremely disgusting.
"Jiang Lucha, what are you doing?!"
"Sorry, I thought this place was filled with smoky air, but it was a garbage dump." Lu Cha put down the dustpan in his hand, without a trace of apology on his face. "You have such a bad mouth. Just eat more celery to get rid of the bad smell. Don't be like a dog biting a beggar."
Hearing that she was mocking him as "an animal bullying others", the boy couldn't help but want to fight with her.
Sizzle—the table legs made a harsh sound as they rubbed against the marble floor.
Nan Yan glanced at the boy nonchalantly, his dark eyes, shimmering with a cold luster, seemed like sharp knives piercing the place where his gaze fell, and the boy shuddered in shock.
"Just now... I seemed to hear you calling me a beast?"
"No, no!" The boy who was arrogant and boasting just now suddenly became as timid as a quail and covered his head with a book.
Nan Yan sneered: "Coward."
Seeing Lu Cha calmly walk over to him and sit down, he subconsciously pulled the table back to its original position and said harshly as usual: "Don't think I will thank you just because you say a few words for me."
"have a finger in the pie."
"That's up to you." Lu Cha smiled and placed the test papers in his backpack on his desk. The thick stack almost covered his entire upper body. "Come on, young man, finish all these papers before the final exam~"
“…”
He should have let that boy beat her to death!
Nan Yan wanted to push the test paper to the ground, but Lu Cha seemed to have guessed that he would do this. He took out an iron ruler and placed it next to him, looking harmless.
"I just bought it. Does it look good?"
The boy resisted the urge to take action and took away a test paper with a dark face.
After a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "I don't have a pen."
“Hey.”
Nan Yan snorted coldly after taking the pink pen that Lu Cha handed to him.
As expected, things follow their owners and are as childish as she is!
Because he had missed too many courses, Nan Yan became impatient after barely finishing a few.
But whenever he wanted to slack off and sleep, Lu Cha would pretend to casually pick up a ruler and tap the table, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Not wanting to be embarrassed in public, Nan Yan could only grit his teeth and continue doing the questions, and the aura around him became increasingly gloomy.
The originally wavering plan became firm at this moment.
The boy bit the pen cap hard to vent his anger.
Jiang Lucha, I hope you won’t cry too hard later!
